I’m on a couple of camera collecting forums. Whenever someone comes on and asks “what’s this worth?” the polite answer is to “use eBay”, and only take notice of what they sold for, not what people are asking.
Old camera kit is worth very little unless it contains the word Leica or Rollieflex. So my little collection is probably worth less than I actually paid for it :-(

Not necessarily. Some classic cameras have had their price inflated over the years after being talked up by camera blogs (at the time they where cheap). Some manual focus lenses have also seen their price ramp up as people are starting to use these with adaptors on their modern digital cameras.
Not Leica, Hassleblad or Rollieflex prices but certainly not very little.

Would anyone know where I could get some camera kit valued/sold? I got given a collection of bodies and lenses by my father-in-law but I won't use it so wanted to sell it on to someone who can.
